CST Alum Rev. Dr. Hiheon Kim Appointed Dean of Hanshin University Graduate School of Theology


We are delighted to share that Rev. Dr. Hiheon Kim, a distinguished CST alumnus, has been appointed the 8th Dean of Hanshin University Graduate School of Theology, serving from September 2025 through September 2029.

Having earned his Master of Arts in Theological Studies in Systematic Theology from CST in 2002, Dr. Kim has since woven together a remarkable vocation as pastor, professor, and ecumenical leader across Korea and the United States. His many books and scholarly writings reflect a lifelong commitment to faith, justice, and the renewal of theology in our time.

His wife, Rev. Dr. Jina Kim—also a CST alumna—has dedicated her life to nurturing Christian education in Korea for more than a decade. She now serves with vision and care as Director of Education for the Presbyterian Church in the Republic of Korea (PROK).

CST warmly celebrates Rev. Dr. Hiheon Kim as he begins his four-year term as Dean, and his wife, Rev. Dr. Jina Kim, in her ongoing Christian education ministry. Together, their faithful service inspires and uplifts all.
